Fall Programs Update Week 3

Hello everyone. Things are really starting to pick up with the after school programs. Last week we had several new youth attend and new volunteers each day. The OUR TURN crew voted and chose "Immigration Issues in MN" for the new show topic. We have a couple of shoots set up for this week, and hope to have more set up for next week. The MV groups are proceeding well. There is no school this week on Friday, but INDY will still meet. We will probably start a bit early at 3 PM to give everyone more time to work.
